Ingredients for Breakfast Burger

Method

Instructions for Making Breakfast Burger

  1. 1

    Caramelize the Onions

    Slice the onion and cook it in a skillet over medium heat with 1 tablespoon of butter until golden and soft, about 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In the same skillet or a separate one, cook the bacon strips until crispy. Remove and set aside on paper towels to drain excess fat.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Hashbrowns

    In the same skillet, add hashbrowns and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Cook the Burger Patties

    In another skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter or oil. Cook the beef burger patties over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. Add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty during the last couple of minutes to melt.

  5. 5

    Fry the Eggs

    In the same skillet, crack the eggs and fry them to your preference (sunny-side up or over-easy). Season with salt and pepper.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns lightly. On the bottom half of each bun, layer the hashbrowns, the cheesy burger patty, two bacon strips, caramelized onions, and top with the fried egg. Cover with the top half of the bun.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the breakfast burgers immediately with your choice of condiments or side dishes.
